Leonard's smile was smug and maniac.

The beautiful countenance has become distorted.

It was not easy to wake up from that gaffe, Leonard wiped his tears, and still said with a smile: "Good death, good death." Hardy, I owe you a personal favor, and I will pay it back later. ”

Hardy didn't take it seriously.

When talking between aristocratic families, they are always three points true and seven points false, and they are polite on the surface, but no one knows what they want to do behind their backs.

"I've written down what you said, and now you can take two or three people back." Hardy laughed, "But this army has to stay, and they have to pay the ransom." ”

Leonard rubbed his face and said, "Gotta give it cheaper." ”

In general, the real value of the prisoners of war was the nobility, and the army prisoners were only small heads, unless there were many of them.

Hardy thought for a moment and said, "Friendship price, just bring fifty gold coins here." ”

"Thank you."

Hearing this ransom price, Leonard couldn't help but gently pat Hardy on the shoulder.

This is indeed a very good price.

And Hardy also forgave himself the high ransom of being a nobleman.

"But you also have to do two things for me."

"You say." Leonard nodded vigorously.

"When I go back, tell your father, I will be a little cheaper for you Lion Sect captives, and later, a group of people should be brought from your fiefdom."

Leonard was stunned for a moment, then he nodded and said, "Amazing, it's their great luck to let the Na family get you." ”

"In addition, the captives of the Royal Praetorian Guard, if you lion faction want it, the price can be slightly higher."

Leonard was a little puzzled at first: "What does the royal guard have to do with our lion family...... Hey, you're too poisonous. ”

"It's not poisonous, it's not as vicious as the three of you who openly say that you want to unite, and in private you are ruthless with Ms. Inoline."

Leonard's expression was a little sneered.

In fact, he already knew about this, and when the three families made this plan, he still felt very excited, thinking that the Jeanne family was absolutely pitiful after being fooled.

Outcome...... Tragedy.

Seeing his embarrassed expression, Hardy stopped stimulating him anymore, and then said: "You'd better leave this matter alone, it's up to your father to decide whether to eat this bait, and you'd better not say anything." ”

Leonard's expression immediately became solemn and he said, "I understand. ”

"Alright, you can go."

Leonard hesitated for a moment, and said embarrassedly, "Can you give me a horse......

A few minutes later, Leonard left with three servants.

The main reason why Hardy let him go was to sell favors to his mother.

There is nothing good to offend a powerful female magician.

And she's still. R's student, Hardy also wants to get on good terms with her and get more magical theory and knowledge.

Hadi then settled in the Heights.

The gates of the royal city were closed, and Hardy knew that he couldn't enter it for the time being.

So if he wants to negotiate with the royal family, he needs more leverage.

Now the royal family is the biggest enemy of the Jeanne family, and in order to compete with the royal family, whether it is the lion faction or the two-headed dragon faction, they can unite.

But the premise of unity is to respect the Jeanne family.

Therefore, it is all the more important to hurt them first.

Then give sweet dates.

In the evening, someone from the garrison came to inform him that Archduke Dora had woken up.

Hardy chose Marlock as the temporary commander of the place, and then rushed to the headquarters of the Silver Wing Knights with more than a dozen cavalry.

By the time Hardy arrived at the manager's tent, he saw that Dora had already sat up.

Although his face was very bad, his face was like yellow paper, but he did wake up.

When he saw Hadi, he first showed a grateful smile, and then said, "Hadi, thank you for turning the tide at the critical moment and saving the most important army of our Rangna family. ”

Hardy approached, bowed, and said, "I'm also a member of the Jeanna family now, and I should do it." ”

"What's going on at home now?" Dora couldn't help but ask.

Hardy shook his head: "I don't know. The royal family sealed off the entire royal city. ”

"Isn't that ......" Dora is the kind of pessimist.

Anything, he can't help but think about it in the most extreme way.

Victor was also nervous.

Hardy shook his head and said, "I don't think it's a big problem. Before I came out, I had my own army stationed at the manor. The castle has the advantage of terrain, and there are nearly 100 dead soldiers of Jeanne's family, and more than 300 people rely on the manor and the castle, even if they are surrounded by one or two thousand people, they can last for ten days and half a month. ”

Dora breathed a sigh of relief: "I hope so." ”

Hadi continued: "And until now, the royal family has not opened the gates, which means that they have not fulfilled their intended tactical purpose. Time is on our side. ”

"Hardy, what do we do now?" Dora asked with a worried face.

At this time, in the manager's tent, there were already several captains and captains on standby.

They all felt a little unbelievable when they saw the coach actually ask a junior about the future course of action.

But when he thought of Hardy's appearance as a nightmare knight, and then thought of Hardy's heroic posture when he led them to charge, there was no objection to it.

"It's very simple, it's a tough fight." Hardy said with a smile: "Take the territory of the Lion Sect and the Two-Headed Dragon Sect first, and take out as many resources as you can, let them shed a lot of blood and nourish ourselves, but we can't let them die." ”

Dora listened a little confused, but nodded pretentiously.

Hardy ignored him and continued, "Then give them some sweetness and draw them over to us. ”

"Does that make any sense?"

Hardy looked at Dora with some puzzlement, didn't understand such a simple thing?

He scratched his head and said, "It's very simple, the old king should be soon, and he doesn't have a few years to live." This time it happened again, he was so angry that he must not have slept well every day, and I estimate that he will fall within a year or two at most. ”

Hearing this, Dora finally understood, and his eyes gradually widened, like two round bells: "What do you mean ......?"

"How many years has it been since the Jeanne family sat on that throne?" Hardy smiled, "It's time for another queen." ”

"Sissi as a queen?"

Dora felt ridiculous at first, but when the imaginary image entered his mind, his body couldn't help but tremble.

Victor felt the same way.

And the captains in the manager's tent, as well as the henchmen of Jeanne's family, were all excited.

If Na's family can sit on the throne, then more titles can be canonized.

And the descendants of loyal vassals who have followed the Jeanne family for two or three hundred years can also move up?
